Death of George Floyd and Subsequent Riots.

Yes, the cops were supposed to check his ID.

The cops were supposed to check his ID because he was under 18, which they did not know, and they were not stopping and checking eveyone's ID.
Got it.

[PointOfViewGun]

The cops were supposed to check his ID because he was under 18, which they did not know, and they were not stopping and checking eveyone's ID.
Got it.

The cops were supposed to check his ID. Period. The fact that he was carrying a rifle openly during a curfew makes it even more important. The fact that there were people shouting at the cops that he killed someone made is even more important.

[Cope]

So, that would be a no the cops did not know he was under 18, and a no the cops were not stopping and checking everyone's ID.
While Rittenhouse was being aggressed on ("Every one of them simply tried to take the gun away...").

It is likely that Rittenhouse was carrying the firearm illegally (possession of a dangerous weapon by a person under 18), although this is only a misdemeanor offence. As above, it would not, in and of itself, cause him to forfeit his privilege of self-defence.

The statute (948.60 (2)(a)) is as follows:

(2) 
(a) Any person under 18 years of age who possesses or goes armed with a dangerous weapon is guilty of a Class A misdemeanor.

Wisconsin Legislature, statute 948.60.

Oh, the cops were supposed to check his ID after the event in which he killed people who were aggressing against him.

Yes, I think I have noted this previously.

They should've checked everyone's ID. Make the thugs pay for the damage they caused.

It's amusing how these so-called progressive people have managed to regress 220 years. Somebody should tell them to look up Robert Owen and what happened in his trans-friendly communal villages.

Hmm. Seems they and NYT are both airbrushing their radical left wing statements.

Are they trying to hide what they believe or something?

Anyway, racial struggle and police brutality is solved. The media’s moved on to other matters.

Inevitably BLM et al will be removed from the foreground of public discourse in the event Biden wins, notwithstanding the most expensive riots in modern US history. They’ll be put back on the shelf til the next time the need to exploit perceived crises/undermine political opposition arises. That will not avert the steady march of political lobbying and legislation, of course, but the altered focus of the public will facilitate their advance in a way best conducted amid relative peace and quiet. The sanitization of public messaging is part of that shift.

Grand jury indicts one of the officers involved in the death of Breonna Taylor with three counts of wanton endangerment.

Likely the best case scenario for this incident.

One officer indicated on lesser charges, the other two get off scott free. Welp, there's a reason government buildings in Louisville are currently boarded up and barricaded.

Edit: he's being indicted for the property he damaged and not the murder. Strap in kiddos, we're in for some more fun.

What is that reason? Leftist taliban using that as an excuse to riot and loot and whose victims are mainly black people?

Well not all hope is lost. The FBI investigation into Breonna Taylor's death is still on-going.

The more I read about policing in the US, the more I feel like I'm not looking at policing at all, but warfare.

How dare the evil police state prevent peaceful protesters from setting buildings on fire!

“Policing” indeed.

I was referring to police intervention at Taylor's house, which sound more like the actions of a hostile occupying army than law enforcement amongst one's own citizens. That no-knock warrant .... It seems to me US police have a lot of leeway in precipitating situations where they end up shooting civilians in 'self defense'.

[Heathen Hammer]

As much as I think that judicial culling of police, government and alphabet agencies in America is long overdue, I find it quite amusing how its brought up by people who live in nations where you can get arrested for social media posts.

[Vanoi]

Yes they just need to protest and justice will finally be served.

Kyle Rittenhouse's legal team released an 11-minute mini-documentary detailing their case for the teen's innocence.
So the antifa "protesters" were mad that he was putting out fires they were starting and tried to kill him, and only when he was basically an inch away from being killed he resorted to use force, promptly reaching out to police shortly after. So much for the leftist narrative about "premeditated murder".
